You're in, go buy some tickets
------------ We're at 4000 points now, come on guys
Last night when I read this I thouhght lets get to that 5000 mark and bought in for 1000 points today I can see that it only took 238 points I know it sounds weird but im pretty certain.

M3, There's 2 reasons - either you didn't have enough points to buy 1000, or you only had 238 available tickets (you can max buy 5000 a draw, but I don't think that's the case). Other than that, I see no reason why it would only take 238 tickets if you entered 1000, never had that happen.

Haha starting to get fun, I edited my prior post and wanted to "bump" the thread but bump was too short so it turned into bummelum.
I just tried buying in for 1000 points two times and get the green check mark but at the side it says "you bought 0 tickets for the draw" and it doesn't take any of my points.

Cool do you want us to keep buying, or is it pointless now (i asume we get them back as there is no real prize) Sure i put 2k, 14hrs made my head a little light lol so might have put 200

No need to buy more - it's above 5000 now
I'm not sure when it will draw, it's set to each sunday at noon, but I might trigger it before depending on how busy we are (this is low-priority project at the moment, so we just need to get it up and running when time allows and let it run by itself just like the MobSafe).
There's no "fancy stuff" going on when it draws, it happens randomly and instantly when it's time and a new draw is immediately started.
